Saint Ignatius’ gifted and soft spoken sophomore forward Shonn Miller said the Wildcats are all about “sticking together and playing defense.’’

Saturday night at Sullivan Gymnasium, Saint Ignatius got it together after a shaky start and, behind some outstanding play by Miller and another defensive-fueled run, defeated a talented Olmsted Falls team, 68-38.

The Wildcats, who took control with a 16-0 surge in the first half, improved to 13-4 and substantiated their eighth-place ranking in The Plain Dealer’s Top 25, seven-county poll.
